And God Said...

This isn't a poem. it's half of the story of my baby sister. who died of SIDS. crib death,

She opened her eye's wide.
and welcomed the world.
She smiled happily
and gave it all she could.
she though against all odds
and won this Battle of decide.

She gave it all. and won.

Mother took her home. and welcomed her to the family.

she smiled and laughed cheerfully.
She was an angel. but soon she was to find her place. and god said. my angel so true. so loyal. you have done your job. and it's time to arrive home. i have a another task for you to do. but this time it's in heaven. please close your eye's so i can lift your tiny soul.

she closed her eye's and fell into a deep sleep. she whispered

i gave it all i could. and won. time for me to leave. this place. and be re born in heaven
once again. we will meet later on. i love you. she whispered.
the family praised her with a
ceremony in her honor.

The priest said. in his words of love.

This little girl thought to survive.
When she was born. she was premature. she gave it all and won that day. she thought against it. with all her strength and decided to stay for a little while. She was an angel from the start and will always be. even till the end. She lifted everyone's spirits and gave it all she could. she smiled when things got bad. and laughed when thing's got tough. she was there when needed. she gave her little giggles. and her tiny smiles. she touched my hand and your's and hugs very gently. she showed us that life was to be lived. and at times to give in. but never give up.
She was my angel from the beginning and now still is. even though she's in heaven. i remember when i first held her in my arms. she looked up at me in the hospital room and smiled for the first time. like she was sent here for me. i remember everyday i came home from school she was there to greet me with her giggles and smiles. but now i have to suffer with out them. because of her i live. because of her i understand that life is not all about treats and surprises. but about truth and loyalty. she gave me the wisdom to cry. and to understand life the proper way. thanks to her I'm still here living each day like she would of wanted me to. i still cry at night. because there's this empty place in my heart where she use to fill. and now i have to find other ways to fill it back up. ill always remember the last day i had with her. i swung her in the air and said ill never forget you and ill always love you no matter what. like in a way i new this was going to happen. god sent me an angel. even though it was for a little while. i know that she will always live in my dreams and my memory.
